Partnerships
Fresh Match Journal considers collaborations that make sense for readers interested in chess, its language and its culture. We keep commercial arrangements distinct from editorial judgement.
Relevant collaborations
We consider clearly scoped educational, cultural and chess-related collaborations, as well as relevant partner placements across the site. Proposals should explain the subject, intended audience, format, proposed placement and any commercial relationship involved.
How placements are labelled
Paid, sponsored or partner material is labelled clearly wherever it appears. Partner placement does not imply editorial endorsement, and commercial partners cannot determine independent editorial conclusions.
Send a proposal
Use the Contact page and select the partnership option. Include enough detail for us to assess relevance and placement; we will not treat an incomplete proposal as an agreement.
A game is richer when you can read its choices
We make chess language clear without flattening its character. Every board has room for curiosity, at any level of play.
